This cream gel foundation's has three main functions, one of which is apparent from the name. Clinique Clarifying makeup is an oil free foundation that controls oil, minimize pores, and helps your face stay blemish free (clarifying). The green tube is for oily (3) to very oily (4) skin and provides sheer to medium coverage. This product really is long wearing and does a great job of controlling oil, and the best part is the coverage. It doesn't look all cakey when you apply it, but goes on smoothly and looks natural. Since it's for oily skin, it does dry quickly, but it gave me no trouble. The shades are also limited, but I found my perfect match, Smooth Vanilla (05), so it will depend on the person. I think this product has a great concept because it reduces what other products produce more of, which is, oil and blemishes. I highly recommend this product, and you'll get it at a great price. -

From the VERY FIRST LINE of the book, you're enthralled. This novel has one of the best hooks I've read, one that immediately intrigues you and makes you wonder........Whoa, who's staring at her? This novel is a supernatural romance that follows our protoganist Helen who's been dead for 130 years. She is forced to cling onto one human life after the other, in order to save herself from the sinking, deathly cold hell like experience that threatens to swallow her. Throughout the years, she continues to experience painful human emotions like that of sadness, loneliness, and unrequited love, but that all changes when someone sees her....
This is one of the few books that actually made me cry. It has both a classic and modern feel that intertwine perfectly, and it deals with realistic topics, specifically involving family. This is my number one favorite book and I recommend it to all teenagers and adults alike.

This product says "dramatically Different Moisturizer" and it means it. My face became very dry after using an acne medication , but after applying this moisturizer, my foundation did not look dry or flaky, but very smooth and of course moisturized. I would recommend this for those with dry skin, as it is a bit oily so will show shine, but this product definitely gets the job done. Make sure to rub it in well on your face. -

If it's wrong to fall in love with your foundation, then I don't want to be right. This liquid foundation is absolutely Ah-mazing! It has SPF 25, its waterproof, and the flawlessness of its coverage is apparent the moment you put it on. It's light and smooth, so you won't feel that thick heaviness on your face, thanks to the Nano-Stretch Network (makes it feel like a second skin) and the Hydra-Gel System (controls moisture for comfort). It comes in a number of shades, mine being sand (031), and has a pleasant scent. What’s the best part? It’s long lasting, and looks natural in any lighting/environment. This foundation is a bit pricey, but to be honest, I think it’s definitely (emphasis on definitely) worth it. It should also last you a while (only need a few dots), so the price will seem even more irrelevant.
Warning: DiorSkin Forever may cause Narcissism, as you will find yourself staring longingly at your face, admiring it in all its flawless glory (ha-ha).

This product is amazing! It literally saved my face, even before and during my "time of the moth". After washing your face (I use Clearasil or Neutrogena face wash, but I found Clearasil works best for me), you apply a thin layer on your entire face right afterward. This acne defense lotion is oil-free and reduces full face acne severity, pimple size and swelling, and pimple redness in 8 hours (but in my case, reduces redness within the first half hour and pimples in a few hours). It's Dermatogist tested and uses botanical extracts which helps prevent irritaion, dryness, and peeling. Even better, it's light weight, so you can easiy carry it around with you. you can use it up to three times daily (I use it twice) and I found that it prevents break outs when your 'time of the month' is around the corner, during, and after (I woud break out pretty bad, but not anymore). It comes in two sizes: 0.5 FL OZ (15ML) and 1.7 FL OZ (50mL) (which is the one I get). Anyway, hope it works as well for you as it has for me. ;-) -
